But I'm struggling with how to confront those who aren't online, who don't pay attention to the news & are convinced they aren't affected by what is happening.

2025 was certainly the year of the audiobook for me, which catapulted my reading to an all-time high of 57 books. A good mix of history, mystery, memoirs, and melancholic Irish American women. I've been using storygraph to track my progress, and I'm excited for some new reading challenges in 2026.

57th and final book of 2025: The Race to Save the Romanovs by Helen Rappaport. The first 2 books were narrated by women. This one was narrated by a man, and it threw me off. This one seemed more scholarly than the other two, with more mentions of the research process and work by other historians.
